Getting the house in order

We have lived in our house since last November and it has been a constant work in progress. My MIL finally came over and lit a fire under my butt and said you need to get your house in order before the baby comes. So with her help that is what we have been doing, we ordered a new dining set, entry table, and she picked out some amazing accessories that go with the rest of the house. Today we had the electrician move some wires and a fan to the other side of our family room so the room would work better and we had the landscaper come out and he will have our backyard done by next Sunday. I also got the crib and changing table set up in the babies room and next week we are going to try and figure out a way to make the office a playroom and move the computer some place else. I feel really good about the progress we have made and I am excited to see the finished product.



I am so thankful for my MIL (Margaret) she is such a blessing to me, sometimes I don't know what I would do without her.

5 Years





It was our 5 year wedding anniversary on Friday and me and my husband had a great evening out and it was the first time that both of us got to sleep in at the same time since Alex was born. I don't have any pictures to post but I thought it would be fun to post a few from the last 5 years of our life together as Mr. and Mrs. Smith :)
